About Natural History Network

Natural History Network exists to support the global wildlife TV business

We aim to join-up the disconnected world of natural history film-makers to help the best people find the best jobs and the best production companies find the best talent.

Our remit is to keep people in the loop and well informed with articles, features and events.

We are also a focal hub for sharing news of developments in technology, location services, wildlife broadcasting, networking events, and new commissions.

We aim to be a one-stop-shop for the wildlife film world.

Lizzie Green

Lizzie Green has been a Producer of wildlife films for 23 years and worked as a staff Producer at the BBC Natural History Unit for 13 years. She has strong connections within the BBC Natural History Unit and in the independent international wildlife TV business. Last year she SP'd for BBC EARTH on an innovative footage based theme park project with SEGA.
She has produced output for BBC One, BBC Two, CBBC, WNET, Discovery Channel and ABC, and has won many awards for her films. In 2011 she was a cinematography judge at Jackson Hole and has chaired events at Wildscreen.
As an experienced Producer and Series Producer, Lizzie appreciates that putting the right team together is crucial for the success of any project.
Lizzie understands the word-of-mouth culture of this business and the need for a personal and trusted service. She has also nurtured young talent; many are now leading producers themselves. The need to provide a platform to share knowledge and maximise the potential of top talent in this fragmented worldwide business, is the motivation behind Natural History Network.
